Java io exception while deploying clarity

Products

• Clarity PPM On Premise

Issue/Introduction

In preparation for upgrading Clarity 16.0.1 to the latest, we got a new Server and copied the Installation files successfully.
Currently, we cannot deploy the clarity app and bg services. 

Environment

Clarity 16.x

Resolution

Tried to perform a clean install of 16.0.1 on the Linux system (9.2) and found the following java io exception:

3/07/24 4:00 PM (ReadLine) 
3/07/24 4:00 PM (ReadLine) Enter Password [admin] : 
3/07/24 4:07 PM (UnknownElement) Task "readline" finished with error.
/data/third_party/Clarity1601/clarity/install-packages/16.0.1/install.xml:623: java.io.IOException: Input/output error
    at com.niku.tools.taskdefs.ReadLine.execute(ReadLine.java:238)

The problem was related to the JDK symbolic (also known as symlink or soft link). JAVA HOME with the direct path, without the symbolic link in the clarity properties.xml, and successfully deployed clarity services.
